Cardi B: $70,000

How would you be? Cardi B was paid $70,000 per weekend for Coachella 2018, sharing the information during an interview with Sirius XM.

According to , The Weeknd demanded the same amount that Kanye would’ve gotten. Ariana received $8 million for the two weekends she performed at Coachella in 2019. I was in attendance/suitably off my head for Ariana’s performance on the second weekend which leaves me with one question: did get a cut of this pay cheque to join her on stage for a bit? reported that Beyoncé was paid somewhere around $8-12million in 2018. Look, I don’t question it — she the queen and it makes sense, to me. But no amount of money can take away the fact that you played Foxy Cleopatra in .
